The Queen ‘told Prince William to put royal duties on the back burner’ when Kate Middleton was expecting George
It's been reported Her Maj's advice for her grandson was very simple - take your time
THE Queen told Prince William to put being a dad first and a Royal second when Kate Middleton was pregnant with George, it has been reported.
Filmmaker Nick Bullen told Yahoo's The Royal Box Her Maj offered Wills the advice in 2013 ahead of him becoming a dad for the first time.
Nick, who has filmed Prince William, recalled a chat he had with him.
He said: "There was a conversation we had with Prince William when we were making a film about the birth of George.
"He came straight from a meeting with the Queen, where the Queen had literally said to him, ‘just enjoy the children, enjoy your time, there is no rush'."
He continued: “There was this sense that he needed to join the firm and start working properly.
“And the Queen had told him absolutely directly, ‘no, do what you need to do with your children, do what you need to do with your family and actually the real royal jobs will come in time.’"
In other royal news, Prince William is reported to have voiced doubts about how suitable Meghan Markle might be as Prince Harry’s bride.
Meanwhile, William and Kate WILL spend a frosty Christmas with Prince Harry and Meghan as the two couples will join the Queen in Norfolk despite rumours of a rift.
